With the current cost of living crisis in Australia, 3.7 million households across the country have reportedly run out of food in the last year.
This Thursday night before Port Adelaide’s sold-out qualifying final against Geelong at Adelaide Oval, members and fans will have the opportunity to lend a helping hand to those who need it most when the club partners with Foodbank, the largest hunger relief charity in Australia.
Foodbank’s work is crucial to the work of the front-line charities who are feeding vulnerable Australians, providing enough food for more than 92 million meals to those in need last year.
But they can’t continue to do this important work without the help of those who are able.

This Thursday, supporters are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to the game, where purple bins will be located outside of all entry gates to collect the goods.
Foodbank will also have staff roaming outside the gates of Adelaide Oval accepting any monetary donations fans may be able to give.
A donation as small as $2 helps feed four people who desperately need it, so no donation is too small with every cent, or can of food, helping Foodbank to continue to fight the hunger crisis in Australia.
